California Association of Nonprofits (CalNonprofits) is a statewide policy alliance that brings nonprofits together to advocate for the communities we serve. We try to see the bigger picture and give the nonprofit sector the support it needs and the recognition it deserves. More than 9,400 California nonprofits have chosen to join CalNonprofits, although not all for the same reasons.
As a member, I can only say thank you for all the services the organization provides. Top of the list — insurance services. CalNonprofits Insurance Services just did a great job with our health insurance changes and also saved us over $20k in our disability insurance.
- Abdi Soltani, Executive Director, ACLU of Northern California
Some have joined because they want to help protect nonprofits from bad legislation, like the bill introduced in our State Assembly to take away the tax-exempt status of nonprofits that crossed a certain threshhold for overhead. Some join because they want an insurance broker that understands and cares about nonprofits -- we provide health insurance to more than 14,000 nonprofit employees through our subsidiary CalNonprofits Insurance Services.
Some join because they want to support our efforts speaking out to philanthropy, like the Open Letter to the Irvine Foundation board that we published. And some join because they support our research, like the first-ever economic impact study of California's nonprofit sector we commissioned called “Causes Count.”
But what all our members have in common is a commitment to being part of the larger nonprofit sector. A commitment to working together to defend our sector from attacks, and to making our voices heard in the state legislature, to county government officials, to philanthropy, and to the general public.
With offices in San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Sacramento, we at CalNonprofits are proud to be part of raising the voices of nonprofits throughout California. Join us!
